Most people know it as hay fever and if you've got it - - as
22 million Americans do - - you're likely to be plagued
during the spring and fall seasons by such annoying symptoms
as sneezing, congestion, runny nose, itchy throat and red,
watery eyes.

Hay fever is basically an allergic reaction to pollens from
trees, weed and grasses.

Unlike garden flower pollen, which is carried by insects, the
dry lightweight pollens which cause allergic rhinitis are
generally spread by wind currents which make them difficult to
avoid.

Signs and Symptoms of Hay Fever :

* Itchy, red eyes

* Clear discharge from the nose and eyes

* Sneezing

* Fatigue

* Nervousness, irritability

* Sleep loss

Nutritional Supplementation for allergy cures:

* Quercetin stabilizes the membranes of the cells that release
histamine. * Echinacea is a natural health remedy to boost the
immune system.

* Turmeric is a natural anti-inflammatory. Take daily, or as
needed for symptoms.

*Placing sliced cucumbers on the eyes will help relieve red,
itchy eyes.

*Nettle leaf reduces tissue swelling.

* A steam inhalation treatment of basil, peppermint, eucalyptus,
or pine can help ease congestion.

* Tiger Balm (available in most stores) contains a blend of
beneficial herbs in a wax base. Apply liberally to the chest and
neck to help alleviate nasal congestion.

General Recommendations:

* Stay indoors as much as possible during the "allergy season."
Keep windows shut and use the air-conditioner when possible.
Especially avoid going outdoors in the afternoon, as this is
when allergens are at their worst.

* Avoid tobacco smoke.

*Shower and change when you come indoors after spending time
outside. Pollen can stick to your hair and clothing.

* Keep pets either inside or outside.

* Try using an air purifier and filter in your home. Make sure
and keep the filters to your heater/air conditioner clean (or
replace them regularly).

* A study at the University of California-Davis found that
eating yogurt every day significantly reduced the incidence of
hay fever attacks.
